Octave Kitten Vintage Analog Synth


via this auction

"An Octave Kitten from the late 70s, roughly along the lines of an ARP Axxe, or a single oscillator Octave Cat, which is of course very similar to an ARP Odyssey. If you compare features, you will notice that this is much more than simply half a Cat, just as the Axxe is more than half an Odyssey. You will have noticed the price of Cats these days too, of course."
